<span>Chapter 63: A nagging feeling part 1


    <span>Long Xiao Yu coldly cut off Gui Mei with what seemed to be annoyance, “Things


    <span>that are of no importance are left unsaid!”


    <span>“Of course,” replied Gui Mei respectfully. He obediently stopped trying to say


    <span>anything more


    <span>Long Xiao Yu didn’t rify what was unimportant, but Gui Mei understood him


    <spanpletely. He knew he mentioned someone that didn’t need to be mentioned.


    <span>Only recently had the pair understood what was going on. Other than the Qi


    <span>Princess and her secrets who had caught his attention, their master didn’t even


    <span>want to hear about any other women.


    <span>However, the importance was not in the An Ya Princess. It was the Qi Princess’


    <span>mood after the An Ya Princess had left.


    <span>He had seen everything that the Princess had said and done to the An Ya Princess.


    <span>It was very obvious that the Princess had yed with her visitors, her moves were


    <span>quite impressive after all.


    <span>Yet when the An Ya Princess had left, the Princess had just stared after her. Her


    <span>expression had suddenly changed from gleeful to displeased.


    <span>However, since his master didn’t want to hear any of it, even if he wanted to say it,


    <span>he couldn’t. As his subordinates, they couldn’t disobey their master’s orders and


    <span>assume that he would want to know.


    <span>Anything their master ordered was exactly what they would do. This had already


    <span>turned been engraved in their minds since long time ago..


    <span>Both Gui Ying and Gui Mei ceased to speak. They just obediently stood off to the


    <span>side.


    <span>A few momentster, Long Xiao Yu slowly asked, “Didn’t the Gu Poison sect and


    <span>their sect leader, Leng Nan Zi disappear from the public eye, after he died?”


    <span>“That is indeed what the rumours have said. As for if the body of the sect leader


    <span>had truly disappeared, no one knows. After all, the Gu Poison sect’s power now,


    <span>is nothing like it was before. They are very weak right now. If they came out to the


    <span>public now, they will be a target for the rest of the world. They would not be


    <span>able to survive if they resurfaced, hence for the past few years, they have been in


    <span>hiding. Also, this subordinate has confirmed that only the Gu Poison sect would be


    <span>able to take out the Heart Controlling Gu,” answered Gui Ying.


    <span>When Gui Ying had discovered that the Heart Controlling Gu was from the Gu


    <span>Poison sect, he was also full of disbelief. It was only after several more


    <span>investigations, did he finally confirm that it was indeed the Gu Poison sect. However,


    <span>he still found this really strange. The Empress wasn’t as simple as they thought


    <span>apparently.


    <span>The Gu Poison sect was one of the three most powerful sects in the Ming Yue


    <span>continent. Although they possessed the weakest man power, they were renowned


    <span>for their Gu and other poisonous objects.


    <span>Rumours about the Gu had spread to royal families of all kingdoms, and it had


    <span>be a tool for many royals in their fight for power. Some Gu took no time at all


    <span>to take effect, and finished people off without them even noticing.


    <span>Their strength grew and grew, and by only allowing certain people to use their Gu,


    <span>they had once imed a firm spot as one of the three most powerful sects on the


    <span>continent.


    <span>However, the Gu had been released out to the public, harming innocentmoners


    <span>and provoking chaos. Thend was in terrible condition, and the protests of the


    <spanmoners filled the road. Everyone was terrified of the Gu. That was their downfall.


    <span>They say that corruption was what scared themoners the most. Little did they


    <span>know, the Gu’s take over had scared themoners much more than corruption


    <span>ever would. The Gu Poison sect was quickly named the dark powers by the


    <spanmoners.


    <span>To stay strong, you must have the people by your side, to ignore them was fatal.


    <span>The Gu’s quick spread and its harmful symptoms had be a headache for kings


    <span>of all kingdoms. They soon came to the agreement to set a taboo for the Gu. No


    <span>matter who was raising or handling the Gu, once they were caught, they would be


    <span>executed immediately.


    <span>Since the Gu had be a taboo in so many ces, the Gu Poison sect, which


    <span>relied on the Gu for a living, could no longer stand up in the imperial cities.


    <span>Without Royal Families to rely on, the Gu Poison sect had lost almost all their


    <span>strength. The Gu Poison sect’s sect master, Leng Nan Zi, had been pressured by


    <span>the other tworge sects to give up his power. In the end, the sect master had


    <span>helplesslymited suicide by jumping off a cliff. The people of the Gu Poison


    <span>sectter hid away from the public after their sect master’s death.


    <span>Later, the Gu had never appeared on the Ming Yue Continent again. In the end,


    <span>the Gu had be a scary creature that existed only in stories and rumours.


    <span>“Since the Heart Controlling Gu came from the Gu Poison sect, then they must not


    <span>have been as simple as we thought,” mused Long Xiao Yu calmly.


    <span>His eyes hadn’t opened, and his calm tone gave no emotion away. Like nothing


    <span>was out of the ordinary at all.


    <span>But how could a matter connected to the Gu Poison sect be so simple?


    <span>The only reason Long Xiao Yu turned a blind eye to the Empress was because he


    <span>knew that there were many powers behind her. As long as he didn’t cross the


    <span>Empress’ bottom line, he had no need to join the battle.


    <span>However, he hadn’t expected the Empress to have connections with a sect that


    <span>had disappeared off the face of the Earth in hiding.


    <span>Since the Empress had dared use such a dangerous creature to hurt people, then


    <span>she must’ve already prepared for the consequences. If someone really wanted to


    <span>investigate this matter, it wouldn’t be hard to catch her. If she was exposed, there


    <span>was no way she would get off without any repercussions..


    <span>“Master, this subordinate is a curious. Since normal people would not have noticed


    <span>the Heart Controlling Gu, then how had the Princess managed to spot the Heart


    <span>Controlling Gu? Could it be that the Princess has raised Gu before?” Gui Ying


    <span>finally asked the question that he had been holding in for days.


    <span>Whether or not his Master knew, he was still curious and needed to ask. The


    <span>question had been killing him for the past few days.
